I just want to ask if it's normal to have problem mounting fujinon 90mm in pacemaker speed graphic? i just noticed lately in my negatives that the edge of the railings on my speed graphic are there. i think i've set up the railings to infinity mark then focus the lens to infinity but then i can see the railings in the negs even if its a bit blurry i just don't like it to be there. i don't even noticed it in the ground glass when focusing it. is it normal? am i setting it up wrong?

My situation isn't exactly analogous to yours -- I shoot 2x3, not 4x5 -- but I shoot a 35/4.5 Apo Grandagon on my Century with the bed dropped and don't have to use front rise to eliminate the rails. A 35 on 2x3 is a bit shorter, relatively, than a 90 on 4x5.

thank you guys! now, i finally know how to make it work with the drop bed! you guys are awesome!

PS: is there any thread we could post some of the pictures we took with our graflex cam? or picture of the cam? happy to share some i took lately.

last questions. is it ok to have the front standard set on the inner rail when focusing the lens to infinity? am i doing it right? when i try to set it on the second rail i'm having a small problem. sorry for all these questions _________________FILM PHOTOGRAPHY ALL DAY!
